The Palmetto Trail, when finished, will be a 425+ mile recreational
trail that traverses the state of South Carolina. The Trail will begin at Oconee State
Park in the upstate and end north of Charleston on the coast. It will consist of several
connecting passages that will showcase the unique history, culture, and geography of the
Palmetto State. Each passage is designed for a weekend's enjoyment on the Trail.

The Trail will connect the mountains to the sea forming a spine for
a network of trails in South Carolina, the genesis of a statewide trail system. The
planned trail corridor will run through the counties of Oconee, Pickens, Greenville,
Spartanburg, Cherokee, Union, Laurens, Newberry, Fairfield, Richland, Sumter, Clarendon,
Orangeburg, Berkeley, and Charleston.
